Happy Fall Ya'll

Tonight is officially the first night of fall! Even though it is still in the 90's here in Charleston, I have visions of crisp, cool air arriving in hopefully the near future. I absolutely LOVE fall. Autumn leaves, pumpkins, Ocktoberfest, football games, boots, leggings, scarves, cool nights, orange, Homecoming, birthdays, Halloween, Thanksgiving, etc. Bring it on!

"Grey" Matter

ABC's Premier Week is finally here and all my favorite shows are back in full swing! Last night was the first of the two-part premier for DWTS (Dancing with The Stars). I have to say, George and Lacey were my favorite dance of last night. But I think Jennifer Grey (aka Baby from Dirty Dancing) and Derek Hough are going to be a real showstopper this season.

What I'm most excited for this week is the highly anticipated Grey's Anatomy premier! Oh-my-gosh did you see the final episode last season? Total jaw dropper. You will find me glued to my TV this Thursday night to see what happens with Meredith, McDreamy, Yang, and the rest of the Seattle Grace crew (or what's left of them).

And since this week is full of "greys", I wanted to share some of my favorite grey pillows I've had my eye on...

Elephants Everywhere

Elephants, Elephants, Everywhere! From bangles and cuffs, to brooches and cufflinks. A great elephant statement piece certainly trumpets fun for fall...

Color Crush: Orange

I've had a major orange crush the past couple of weeks. Blame it on Clemson football, fall leaves, or Halloween right around the corner. Orange is evermore present on my mind and these are some of my favorite picks...

If I was...

This weekend was definately filled with much fun and excitement. Details to come later. In the meantime, my favorite Buckhead Belle tagged me in this fun questionnaire. Thanks BB!

-If I was a month, I would be October. Fall weather, football, my birthday, AND Halloween all packed into one month!
-If I was a day of the week, I would be Saturday.
-If I was a time of day, I would be late night @ last call. I'm nocturnal, I swear.
-If I was a sea animal, I would be a rainbow fish. They really do exist! I spotted one for 3 quick seconds while snorkeling in Cancun once, and it was absolutely beautiful.
-If I was a direction, I would be South, below the Mason-Dixon line.
-If I was a piece of furniture, I would be a fun, upholstered scroll back chair.
-If I was a gemstone, I would be blue topaz.
-If I was a tree, I would be a Southern Live Oak with spanish moss. They are my absolute favorite tree and I love the natural "canopy" they create all over the lowcountry.
-If I was a flower, I would be a begonia.
-If I was a kind of weather, I would be a cool, fall day in Clemson, South Carolina. (I agree with you BB!)
-If I was a car, I would be a black Range Rover.
-If I was a place, I would be Charleston, SC.
-If I was a fabric, I would be imperial trellis.
-If I was a scent, I would be 'Laila' by Geir Ness.
-If I was a song, I would be "Wagon Wheel" by Old Crow Medicine Show..so many memories and definately my all time favorite.
-If I was a pair of shoes, I would be a pair of flat, gold Kate Spades.

Bama Bound

Well it looks like my blogging has been non-existant lately...thanks to football season. This weekend I'm off to see the Alabama Crimson Tide battle the Penn State Nittany Lions. I cannot wait to get to Tuscaloosa and divulge in some Dreamland BBQ, yumm! Boyfriend is also going to take me to the Bear Byrant Museum for the first time. For those who are not familiar with the man, the myth, the legend that is Bear Bryant..he is the most "winningest" coach in the history of college football. And his houndstooth fedora inspired Alabama's gameday attire to what it is today. Hope everyone has a wondeful football weekend, Roll Tide & Go Tigers!

Kickoff!

At last, it's HERE! Football kicks off this weekend with Clemson's first home game of the season. I absolutely cannot wait to get to Clemson, spend time with awesome friends and family, and see the Tigers play! Every year I look most forward to the first time the Tigers run down the hill, it is truly the most exciting 25 seconds in college football and it still gives me chills every.single.time. I love tradition and I love football. Happy tailgating!
